Publisher's Summary

Osho, one of the best-known and most provocative spiritual teachers of our time, presents The Sutra of 42 Chapters—a scripture compiled in the first century C.E by a Chinese emperor. Two thousand five hundred years have passed since Buddha delivered the sutras on which this series is based.

Using modern idiom, Osho extracts the kernel of Buddha’s profound insight and understanding and presents his everlasting message to the contemporary listener in a manner that is lucid, straightforward, and humorous. Osho weaves his own unique insights into this profound ancient wisdom and expands its meaning for our time, discusses the need for doubt and argument in the spiritual search, the nature of desire, and the discipline of non-attachment.

As we travel with the Buddha on a path of radical wisdom, we’ll laugh or shake our heads at the folly, the ineptitude, or the goodness of the characters in the stories—and gain knowledge and understanding at the same time.

Osho engages us at every level to help us experience the Buddha’s teachings and take in their timeless truths. A powerful, inspirational gem of a series of talks recorded in an outdoor auditorium with several thousands of people in his audience.

This is an abridged edition of an original series of talks by Osho titled, ""The Discipline of Transcendence"".

must read or hear book

brilliantly simplified by osho. makes you think. enjoy the meaning of life.a purposeful use of anecdotes is used by the master to make you understand. best if you could listen to one chapter at a time and then think over .. listen to the anecdote... not just smile but understand the purpose. ordering the physical book to read again.

Life changing moment

I was listening to this book for a month. Tremendous improvement happened in my behavior in daily life. I would strongly recommend you to listen if you're above 25yr old.
MEDITATE AND BE AWARE OF EVERY MOMENT. LIVE THE LIFE

Engaging

From 1st chapter to 22nd, it's quite engaging. Osho's style is unique. Something attributed to Buddha may not be matching with scripture though. overall a great collection
